I think you should also consider how many headers are different (to be
deleted and be added). See the following example:
Old New
1 to be deleted
2 to be deleted
3 3 common
4 4 common
5 5 common
6 6 common
7 to be added
In this case, we cannot save four bytes. We need to sent two bytes for
deleting and one byte for adding. So, we can save just one byte.
P.S.
Even we can save 8 bytes in average in the real world, I don't think
it contributes to reduce the number of IP packets to be generated.
